Newspaper Comment.

LONDON. Sept. 21.-The Times, comment
ing on the speech made by Mr.. Dillon at the
meeting of the National League in Limerick
yesterday, says: 'Mr. Dillon's speech reads
rather like an Unconscious confession OF
weakness. There will be many more such
confessions if the government continues
steadily and unfiinchingly III its task of vim
dicating the law"
The Standard says: "The law is now a
reality. Power has passed away from juries
of perjured partisans. Dillon and his kind
are naturally anxious to sustain the errors of
the league. We do not disguise from our
selves the fact that the struggle will be a
sharp one"
The News, commenting upon the launch
of the huge iron-clad Trafalgar, at Ports
mouth. Yesterday, and the near completion
of her Sister ship Nile. says: ut Is not i'm
probable that these two monsters will be the
last of our very big iron-clads. No oothers ~
first-class size have, during the past two
wears been laid down, and among naval
constructors the conviction is now Tapidlv
gaining ground that for practical purposes.
vessels of moderate tonnage, ALWAYS proyid-
ed they are Of great speed, will be found
more useful than leviathans.
"Our present ignorance of the realities of
modern naval warfare runs us into danger
GUS risks by investing in the construction of
single iron-cads sums which otherwise dis
buased would provide whole hotilla of fast
cruisers, armored gunboats and swift torpe-
do vessels"

The Money Market

1t seems after all that the fears about the
tightness of the money market are not based
upon facts. Only about one million dollars
worth of bonds were offered for sale at the
opening Of bids today, mostly at prices rang
ing from los to 109.

IN the death Of Senator John AL0gsu the country mourns the loss of a wise statesman and Jealous patriot, whose long public career has been Hn honor to Amegican manhood. Had he lived, 1t is possible that he would have reached the exalted station Of chief executive of the United States, and lis untimely death removes from the path Of ambitions statesmen their most formidable rival. He was @ warm friend of the people and was welded to their interests with Q de votion that Is seldom seen in the high official clrcie in which be moved. Ths whole nation sincerely mourns the ab- rupt closing Of hi5 days of usefulness, and 1t will accord to his memory high place among the distinguished patriots inst have preceded him to the restful peace that welcomes alike the high and the lowly to its sinless portals.

WE trust our citizens will moi require being urged on to show their friendli- less to the smelling company which Col. Robenson tells us intends to estab- fish itself in this city. I, should need no Wort to inspire a tender of at leatt t an eligible site for the works, just where our own people would like to have them located. The cost is comparatively nothing, but the effect of the cordial spirit shown will be invaluable. Let us welcome the new company and dem onstTate to them that whatever Colonel hobenson has represented to them that Is good, was not an exaggeration of the facts, and also let us promote a pleasant intercourse with them tha, vill be pro- ductive of reciprocal favors and smooth business associations. We can well af- fond to be civil aud even to extend oour- tesies of intrinsic value, for the com pany will prove the means of assisting many of our poor mine owners to attain snug fortunes.

The Pope. Golden Rose.

A descendant of the famous Cellini. slsi bearing that name, engraved the golden rose recently presented by the pope to the queen regent of Spain
 The first Of these golden roses were sim ply flowers of red enamel, representing the natural color of the rose. Later the color of the rose was left white, and a large ruby was put into the center, the reflection from which gave the petals a red tint. Innocent NL had a golden rose nade which weighed over eight pounds, was ornamented with several sapphires, and represented value of over 10000 francs. Alexander VII. ordered one rose at nearly C.OOJ francs and another at i,Uo0 francs
 Lately the golden rose has been worth over I0OJO francs and hls taken the form of branch with several flowers. a natu- ral rose. which has been blessed by the rope. forming the center. Of this kind Is the rose which the queen regent of Spain has just received. It k planted in mag nificent silver vase, which D a splendid example of Roman workmanship. The rose itself is said to be a symbol of the creator. the splendor and richness of the metal represents the eternal light which surrounds the Divine. and the perfumes and spices which are placed in the vase by the pope symbolize the glory and res- urreciion Of Christ--Court Journal

The pioneers were all present with their families and they unceremOn- ioUsiy proceeded 10 enjoy themselves in a social gay as much ss possible. The music was good and when the stiffened joints of some sf the gray-hGired youths os fifty or sixty years of hardship got warmed up 70 the occasion, the heavy weight of the years seemed tO vanish and they were boys again. Indeed, every one, from the little folk who could scarcely realize the Objec. ot the re- union, to the griZzled veterans whose enjoyment consisted in witnessing that Of .he active participants. experienced full measure of pleasure and were joy ous and happy.
 At nearly eleven o'clock supper was announced, and the vast assemblAge | moved from the dancing hall into the | lodge room proper, when three long ia | hles were groRniug beneath a heavy | weight Ot the choicest yiands the wives | and daughters of the pioneers could pro- vide. Everything was perfect and nOth | iDg WAS lacking to make the occasion one of the most signal success.

 The cost of running one cubic yard tor about one ton aud hali) through the machine skCulj not exceed 8 cents, when the water is derived from a point higher than the machine, the latter re- eeivIng the water from Bu elevation of from three to four feet above the ground on which it stHnds. The cost should not bo more than 8 ceutB per cubic yard when the water Is led directly into the machine aud wEla managed i1 a buslness like manner.

 h most eases it costs less to elevate or pump inc water by hot Gi- or steam pumps than tO .sse cut d.tchcs, espe- cially with 0 steam pump. which gener- ally supplies enough water Tor three or more machines, In such ccse the ma chine is moved along with the excavE- .lon and thus considerable cKlense Is saved n handiIng the gravel, while the expense of lew feet of piping il mere ly nominal.

 For gravel Nhich contains the oriI1- ary clGy there ia sn extra arrangement on the machine, and II IS then worked without trouble.
